What nobler, better ambition can a younr
couple have than to live loving:, helpful
lives, and then, in a green old age, look
back over a life that has been mutually
self-sacrificing, useful and successful? The
ooe great stumbling-block that stands be
tween tnost married couples and this ideal
married career is ill health. If both hus
band and wife would take proper care of
their health, ther. would be more hale,
hearty anil happy old people in thf world.
If, when a man suffers from the little ills
of life, he will resort to I)r fierce's Golden
Medical Discowry, the chances are that he
will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This
great medicine gives a man a healthy
hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive
juices, invigorati s the liver, purifies and
enriches the blood and builds firm, muscu
lar, healthy flesh tissue.
It is an old saying that women are hard
to kill. There i> truth in this, as far
as the majority of illnesses are concerned.
There is one cla's of disorders, however,
that quickly undermine any woman's gen
eral health. No woman can retain her
strength who suffers from weakness and
disease of the t3< 'icate and important or
gans that make wifehood and motherhood
possible. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion is an unfailing cure for all disorders
of this description. It acts directly on the
sensitive organs concerned, in a natural,
soothing way. It makes them strong,
healthy and vigorous. It prepares them
to bear the burdens of maternity. It is
the greatest of nerve tonics. The woman
who uses it will bear healthy, happy child
ren, and live to a ripe old age.

and invigorate the stomach, liver aud

INSTINCTIVELY OBEYED.
A Former Soldier'* Slnunlnr MlAtftlce
In a Chleniro Kntlutr
Home.
He has served under the flag in a regi
ment of infantry. The late war served
also to refresh liis memory concerning
the drill regulations and the orders
given when a desired movement is to be
executed. He was with a friend, also of
military experience, when he entered
a dairy lunch house in the business dis
trict. Long counters run along each
side of the room, with a third curved
in front in the center. Guests were
seated at each of the counters busily
disposing of food.
The two friends moved down to the
counter to the east, fronted bv the
piano stool accompaniment. They were
about to take seats when a sound smote
their ears which caused the soldier to
perform like a trick monkey. One of
the waiters shouted out instructions
to the cook in the rear. The words
jumbled and this Is what they sounded
to the soldier:
"Guides —posts!"
Hearing this the soldier backed from
the counter, faced to the right and
walked rapidly to the end nearest the
door. Here he took position and care
fully gazed along the line of feeders.
His friend, realizing that an instinctive
military sense had moved the man,
went after him.
"What the dickens are you doing,
Bill?" asked the friend. "This is no
barracks nor parade; it's a hash foun
dry. Don't make a spectacle of your
self. Back with you."
"Didn't that fellow yell 'Guides—
posts?'" queried the man in a dazed
manner.
"Queer how you soldiers think every
thing is for you," was the reply. "He
yelled 'Dry toast,' if you must know." —

John Gel* Ahead.
"John," she asked, cuddling up to
him—for it was the seventh anniversary
of their marriage—"what was the hap
piest moment of your life?"
"Ahj dear," he replied, "I remember
it well. I shall never forget it. If I live
to be a hundred years old that moment
will always stand out as plainly as it
does to-night."
She sighed and nestled a little closer,
looking longingly up into his honest
blue eyes. After a moment's silence,
she urged:
"Yes, but, John, dearest, you haven't
told me when it was."
"Oh," he answered, "I thought you
had guessed it. Surely, it ought to be
easy enough for you to do so. It was
when you came to me last fall, if you
remember, and told me that you had de
cided to trim over one of your old hats
so as to make it do for the winter."
Then the celebration of the seventh an
niversary of their marriage became for
mal and uninteresting.—Keystone.

TRACK AND ROAD HORSES
[A SPECIALTY.
TO PLATE THE DEAD.
Scientists Propose to Cover Corpses
with Metals.
In Whlcb Condition They Will Keep
Forever The I'rocen Said lit
Be Superior to the Present
Method of EmbalnlDg.
Among the topics constantly agitat
ing social and sanitary experts are
the difficulties of urban sepulture. The
largest cities no longer tolerate burial
cemeteries within their limits. The ex
pense and trouble that this prohibition
involves have given rise to the alterna
tive ideas of incineration and other
similar methods for the disposition of
the dead. So niawiy details of the pres
ent way of conducting funerals have
been developed by the progressive
spirit of the times that it is no wonder
that in this peculiar field also there
should be an application of scientific
elements.
Evidences found by delvers into the
extant relics of the past of the pro
fiency the ancients attained in the
process of embalming have encouraged
modern attempts at the preservation
of the dead. Some of these are mere
temporary expedients to keep the body
for a brief time before burial. Others
attempt to make the preservation per
manent. A qualified success in this di
rection has led to the assertion that
the lost art of embalming has been
rediscovered.
This is the ng-e of electrical wonders.
The area of human affairs into which
the mysterious current does not run
and revolutionize existing conditions is
practically unknown. The domain of
the "great majority" i 9 its latest field
of operation.
A scientist of most advanced elec
trical ideas, who recently returned from
Europe, is the advocate at an applica
tion of electrical methods for the pres
ervation of the dead. He holds that
his experiments prove it not pnly en
tirely practical, but the genuine end of
the age system of permanent embalm
ing. He has been a laborious student
of Egyptology, and is familiar with all
the discoveries made in the disinte
grating of the mummies from their an
cient coverings.
During- a stay in Koine he visited the
famous cemetery of the Capuchins, un
der the church of that order, in the
Piazza de Cappuccini. Here the vaults
contain tombs with earth from Jeru
salem. When new interments are to bo
made the bones longest undisturbed
in these vaults are taken out. From
these the most g-hastly decorations for
the walls and roofs have been fash
ioned. While lookingat tlieerumblicg
remains of the 4,000 departed monks
lined up against the wall it occurred tQ
him that if bodies were only treated
to the electrical process by which they
could be incased in a metallic surface
they would thus be preserved intact
and lifelike for all time.
Experiments followed, which the sci
entist regards as highly satisfactory.
To those unfamiliar with the process
of electrotyping it may be said that to
have a thin film of metal deposited on
the entire surface it is first covered with
plumbago —more familiar to unscien
tific ken in stove polisji. Then with an
acid bath and the electric current the
transfer is effected.
Ordinary metallic platings of table
wate and other articles of familiar use
are common enough, but experiments
had to show that the idea was also ap
plicable to other substances. Meats
and vegetable fibers were so treated to
his satisfaction, and then he advanced
to his embalming theory.
In this the ljody is prepared for the
ordinary embalming. The viscera are
removed and the preservative liquid is
injected into the veins. A coating of
metal applied by the electro-plating
process then hermetically incases the
whole frame and it is preesrved intact
forever.
In this outer shell gold, silver, copper
or nickel could be used to suit the
purse and fancy of those having the em

Tbc De Lone Incident.
A letter from Senor Uupuy de Lome,
dated December 25, 1597, and addressed
to Senor Canalejas, has been stolen in
Havana by some one in the Cuban inter
est, and sent to the Cuban junta in New
York, which gave it to the press on
February 9, IS9B. This
a coarse and vulgar attack upon Presi
dent McKinley, which led to the imme
diate resignation and recall of the
writer, who had served Spain well and
unscrupulously. but far more im
portant in its wider bearings than this
disclosure of the character of Dupuy
de Lome was the fact that the letterre
vtaled the utter hollowness of all the
Spanish professions, and showed that
the negotiations in regard to autonomy
and commercial relations were only r in
tended to amuse and deceive the United
States. The effect of this revelation
was just beginning to make itself felt
when the American people were
stunned by an event which drove every
thing else from their minds. —Hon.
Henry Cabot Lodge, in Harper's Mag
azine.

GREAT
February SHOE SALE.
This is a case o? force—
YV<? must have room.
This will be your month at our store.
If you need Shoes or Rubbers, you can
have things pretty much your own way.
We have too many goods in the house,
and just a short month to sell them —we
must reduce our stock; there is no other
way ont of it. Our spring goods will be
here March Ist, and this sale is to empty
our shelves of winter footwear AT ANY
PRICE to make room for new goods.
We Want to be Understood
We are not in business for our health,
and it is not often we sell shoes without
profit. This is one of the times we do,
and we consider it good policy to close
out all our winter goods even if we do so
at a loss. We then get the much-needed
room and can buy an entire new stock in
the fall.
Our Prices This (Month
Will be Record I}recl<ers.
We cannot go into detail regarding
prices, but we promise ycu to meet and
better any prices you cm get in Butler.

A Bit Historical.
When our grandfathers a hunting went.
In the long ago, they took down, from it»
peg on the wall, :t gun of no mean dimen
sions. long of barrel and strong of stock.
Over o.ie shoulder was thrown tne polished
powder horn, ;u*«l over the other the buck
skin bullet pouch embroidered in fancy
worsted by the good man's wife. Then the
Hint was carefully tested against good steel
that it might, without fail, strike fire, when
the hunter took aim and pulled trigger on
the bounding buck.
And in those same days came a wonderful
invention of picture taking and with much
pain and suffering our grandfathers, in stiir
storks and with face chalked, "looked pleas
ant" for full twenty minutes together, that
we, their defendants, might see their featur
es in little plushed lined cases, gay with
brass trimmings.
AND TO DAY! We defy the very el
ements we use. The crack of the sports
man's rifle is no longer abcompanied by a
puff of smoke. The photographer is no long
er obliged to seek the dark room when re
loading his camera.
The nitrous cartridge has removed [lie
Smoke nuisance"; the Film cartridge has
done away with the dark room.
